The methodological instructions for the laboratory workshop on metal physics include descriptions of four works on a special workshop provided for by the program for the preparation of students of the IV year of the day department of the specialty 0204 of the specialization "Metal Physics" . The main theoretical information, summarized in the guidelines, corresponds to the content of the special courses "Physics of metals", "Physics of thin films". 'Introduction to Electronography' et al. The first three works are devoted to the description of the most common methods of preparing metal samples for electron microscopic and electronographic study and the electronographic method itself, the latter describes the study of anode oxidation of metals. In each work of methodical instructions, the purpose, main means and methods of its achievement are defined, detailed instructions for the fulfillment of tasks are given, as well as control questions for self-examination.
